Not sure playing them with the U12s boss in temporary charge and waiting for the sack when the new guy signs up is a fearsome proposition

If I were a reporter, I'd certainly be intimidated by the possibility of having to pronounce Ralph Hasenhuttl's name correctly. It's far too easy for the brain to veer off in all manner of directions, from hazelnut to Hasselhoff

Six months into a three-year contract too

Hark! I hear the clip Klopp of lots of Santas running around Liverpool in the red coats. Do Everton Santas wear blue?
 
Commentator (laughing): "It just goes to show what an embarrassment of riches Manchester City have when they can change every player in their defence..."

It also suggests that cheating the FFP rules and threatening UEFA can be very effective, if you're rich enough to pay off enough people so that nobody notices it, particularly when you're not even bothering to hide it very well, because you're so used to getting your own way, unhindered.

Trippier/Aurier Alderweireld/Sanchez Vertonghen/Foyth Davies/Rose
